[quote=Anonymous]McLean is not exactly a special needs school.  About half the kids have a diagnosis but many just benefit from the small size and individualization.  And it is very common for kids to cycle through there, coming and going, even mid-year.  Our DC is probably a lifer because its a really good fit but we've seen kids coming and going throughout his years there.

I have met two sets of twins where one was at the school and one wasn't.  The first set had a child who was at McLean for only a year or two and I don't know the reason they left, but perhaps the separation wasn't working for the child or the family.  The other set has a child in DC's class and I think it has worked out well for that family.  Interestingly I can't think of a set of twins currently at the school.  This tells me that it is more typical for families to split their kids up than to send them both, though my guess is that this is a question the admissions office could help you with.

One thing to think about is that the kindergarten is generally very small so if you send both children they will be very much together.  This may or may not be a good thing.[/quote]
